Technology Radar

CTO methodology for making technology decisions, governing architecture, measuring engineering effectiveness, managing technical debt, and operating an innovation pipeline. These frameworks help a CTO balance short-term delivery velocity with long-term platform health.

When Not to Use

• Route enterprise capability maps, operating-model design, and current/target-state roadmaps to enterprise-architecture. This skill stays focused on technology portfolio posture and governance mechanics; use software-architecture for system-level target design.
• Route the durable record of one consequential decision to adr-authoring; use this skill to choose the governance path and connect the decision to standards or radar feedback.
• Route system design and code changes to the relevant engineering skill, security requirements and threat modeling to secure-software-engineering, and live operations or SLO work to site-reliability-engineering.
